Description

technical field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of deep learning hardware acceleration, and more specifically relates to a hardware acceleration system oriented to an LSTM network model. Background technique

[0002] Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), as a variant of deep learning Recurrent Neural Network (RNN), is widely used in sequence model processing tasks such as speech recognition, natural language processing, and image compression. LSTM effectively solves the problem of gradient explosion and gradient disappearance in the RNN training process by introducing a gating mechanism and a state value for storing long-term and short-term historical information, and relatively greatly increases its computational complexity and space complexity. Its intensive calculation and memory access limit its application on the embedded hardware platform with limited resources. Therefore, it is a very meaningful research to design and accelerate the optimization of the LSTM model f...
